Tuning Wettability of Molten Lithium Via a Chemical Strategy for Lithium Metal Anodes
ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-12938-4 OPEN Tuning wettability of molten lithium via a chemical strategy for lithium metal anodes Shu-Hua Wang1, Junpei Yue1, Wei Dong1,2, Tong-Tong Zuo1,2, Jin-Yi Li1,2, Xiaolong Liu1, Xu-Dong Zhang1,2, Lin Liu1,2, Ji-Lei Shi 1,2, Ya-Xia Yin1,2 & Yu-Guo Guo 1,2* Metallic lithium affords the highest theoretical capacity and lowest electrochemical potential and is viewed as a leading contender as an anode for high-energy-density rechargeable 1234567890():,; batteries. However, the poor wettability of molten lithium does not allow it to spread across the surface of lithiophobic substrates, hindering the production and application of this anode. Here we report a general chemical strategy to overcome this dilemma by reacting molten lithium with functional organic coatings or elemental additives. The Gibbs formation energy and newly formed chemical bonds are found to be the governing factor for the wetting behavior. As a result of the improved wettability, a series of ultrathin lithium of 10–20 μm thick is obtained together with impressive electrochemical performance in lithium metal batteries. These findings provide an overall guide for tuning the wettability of molten lithium and offer an affordable strategy for the large-scale production of ultrathin lithium, and could be further extended to other alkali metals, such as sodium and potassium. 1 CAS Key Laboratory of Molecular Nanostructure and Nanotechnology, CAS Research/Education Center for Excellence in Molecular Sciences, Beijing National Laboratory for Molecular Sciences (BNLMS), Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), 100190 Beijing, China. -

Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy
Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy Introduction Gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) is one of the so-called hyphenated analytical techniques. As the name implies, it is actually two techniques that are combined to form a single method of analyzing mixtures of chemicals. Gas chromatography separates the components of a mixture and mass spectroscopy characterizes each of the components individually. By combining the two techniques, an analytical chemist can both qualitatively and quantitatively evaluate a solution containing a number of chemicals. Gas Chromatography In general, chromatography is used to separate mixtures of chemicals into individual components. Once isolated, the components can be evaluated individually. In all chromatography, separation occurs when the sample mixture is introduced (injected) into a mobile phase. In liquid chromatography (LC), the mobile phase is a solvent. In gas chromatography (GC), the mobile phase is an inert gas such as helium. The mobile phase carries the sample mixture through what is referred to as a stationary phase. The stationary phase is usually a chemical that can selectively attract components in a sample mixture. The stationary phase is usually contained in a tube of some sort called a column. Columns can be glass or stainless steel of various dimensions. The mixture of compounds in the mobile phase interacts with the stationary phase. Each compound in the mixture interacts at a different rate. Those that interact the fastest will exit (elute from) the column first. Those that interact slowest will exit the column last. By changing characteristics of the mobile phase and the stationary phase, different mixtures of chemicals can be separated. -

These authors equally contributed to this work. y Received: 3 April 2020; Accepted: 23 April 2020; Published: 4 May 2020 Abstract: This review provides detailed fundamental principles of X-ray-based characterization methods, i.e., X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure, and the development of different techniques based on the principles to gain deeper understandings of chemical structures in polymeric materials. Qualitative and quantitative analyses enable obtaining chemical compositions including the relative and absolute concentrations of specific elements and chemical bonds near the surface of or deep inside the material of interest. More importantly, these techniques help us to access the interface of a polymer and a solid material at a molecular level in a polymer nanocomposite. The collective interpretation of all this information leads us to a better understanding of why specific material properties can be modulated in composite geometry. -

Gas Phase Chemical Evolution of Uranium, Aluminum, and Iron Oxides Received: 22 January 2018 Batikan Koroglu1, Scott Wagnon 1, Zurong Dai1, Jonathan C
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Gas Phase Chemical Evolution of Uranium, Aluminum, and Iron Oxides Received: 22 January 2018 Batikan Koroglu1, Scott Wagnon 1, Zurong Dai1, Jonathan C. Crowhurst1, Accepted: 19 June 2018 Michael R. Armstrong1, David Weisz1, Marco Mehl1,2, Joseph M. Zaug1, Harry B. Radousky1 & Published: xx xx xxxx Timothy P. Rose1 We use a recently developed plasma-fow reactor to experimentally investigate the formation of oxide nanoparticles from gas phase metal atoms during oxidation, homogeneous nucleation, condensation, and agglomeration processes. Gas phase uranium, aluminum, and iron atoms were cooled from 5000 K to 1000 K over short-time scales (∆t < 30 ms) at atmospheric pressures in the presence of excess oxygen. In-situ emission spectroscopy is used to measure the variation in monoxide/atomic emission intensity ratios as a function of temperature and oxygen fugacity. Condensed oxide nanoparticles are collected inside the reactor for ex-situ analyses using scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM, TEM) to determine their structural compositions and sizes. A chemical kinetics model is also developed to describe the gas phase reactions of iron and aluminum metals. The resulting sizes and forms of the crystalline nanoparticles (FeO-wustite, eta-Al2O3, UO2, and alpha-UO3) depend on the thermodynamic properties, kinetically-limited gas phase chemical reactions, and local redox conditions. This work shows the nucleation and growth of metal oxide particles in rapidly-cooling gas is closely coupled to the kinetically-controlled chemical pathways for vapor-phase oxide formation. Gas phase nucleation and growth of metal oxide nanoparticles is an important topic for many areas of chemistry, physics, material science, and engineering1–6. -
Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis
qualitative and quantitative analysis Russian scientist Tswett in 1906 used a glass columns packed with divided CaCO3(calcium carbonate) to separate plant pigments extracted by hexane. The pigments after separation appeared as colour bands that can come out of the column one by one. Tswett was the first to use the term "chromatography" derived from two Greek words "Chroma" meaning color and "graphein" meaning to write. Invention of Chromatography by M. Tswett Ether Chromatography Colors Chlorophyll CaCO3 5 *Definition of chromatography *Tswett (1906) stated that „chromatography is a method in which the components of a mixture are separated on adsorbent column in a flowing system”. *IUPAC definition (International Union of pure and applied Chemistry) (1993): Chromatography is a physical method of separation in which the components to be separated are distributed between two phases, one of which is stationary while the other moves in a definite direction. *Principles of Chromatography * Any chromatography system is composed of three components : * Stationary phase * Mobile phase * Mixture to be separated The separation process occurs because the components of mixture have different affinities for the two phases and thus move through the system at different rates. A component with a high affinity for the mobile phase moves quickly through the chromatographic system, whereas one with high affinity for the solid phase moves more slowly. *Forces Responsible for Separation * The affinity differences of the components for the stationary or the mobile phases can be due to several different chemical or physical properties including: * Ionization state * Polarity and polarizability * Hydrogen bonding / van der Waals’ forces * Hydrophobicity * Hydrophilicity * The rate at which a sample moves is determined by how much time it spends in the mobile phase. -
Process Intensification in the Synthesis of Organic Esters : Kinetics
PROCESS INTENSIFICATION IN THE SYNTHESIS OF ORGANIC ESTERS: KINETICS, SIMULATIONS AND PILOT PLANT EXPERIMENTS By Venkata Krishna Sai Pappu A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chemical Engineering 2012 ABSTRACT PROCESS INTENSIFICATION IN THE SYNTHESIS OF ORGANIC ESTERS: KINETICS, SIMULATIONS AND PILOT PLANT EXPERIMENTS By Venkata Krishna Sai Pappu Organic esters are commercially important bulk chemicals used in a gamut of industrial applications. Traditional routes for the synthesis of esters are energy intensive, involving repeated steps of reaction typically followed by distillation, signifying the need for process intensification (PI). This study focuses on the evaluation of PI concepts such as reactive distillation (RD) and distillation with external side reactors in the production of organic acid ester via esterification or transesterification reactions catalyzed by solid acid catalysts. Integration of reaction and separation in one column using RD is a classic example of PI in chemical process development. Indirect hydration of cyclohexene to produce cyclohexanol via esterification with acetic acid was chosen to demonstrate the benefits of applying PI principles in RD. In this work, chemical equilibrium and reaction kinetics were measured using batch reactors for Amberlyst 70 catalyzed esterification of acetic acid with cyclohexene to give cyclohexyl acetate. A kinetic model that can be used in modeling reactive distillation processes was developed. The kinetic equations are written in terms of activities, with activity coefficients calculated using the NRTL model. Heat of reaction obtained from experiments is compared to predicted heat which is calculated using standard thermodynamic data. The effect of cyclohexene dimerization and initial water concentration on the activity of heterogeneous catalyst is also discussed. -
Molecular Characterization of Uranium(VI) Sorption Complexes on Iron(III)-Rich Acid Mine Water Colloids

Scheinost a,b a Institute of Radiochemistry, FZ Rossendorf e.V., P.O. Box 510119, D-01314 Dresden, Germany b Rossendorf Beamline at ESRF, B.P. 220, F-38043 Grenoble, France Received 7 November 2005; accepted in revised form 21 August 2006 Abstract A mixing of metal-loaded acid mine drainage with shallow groundwater or surface waters usually initiates oxidation and/or hydrolysis of dissolved metals such as iron (Fe) and aluminum (Al). Colloidal particles may appear and agglomerate with increasing pH. Likewise chemical conditions may occur while flooding abandoned uranium mines. Here, the risk assessment of hazards requires reliable knowl- edge on the mobility of uranium (U). A flooding process was simulated at mesocosm scale by mixing U-contaminated acid mine water with near-neutral groundwater under oxic conditions. The mechanism of U-uptake by fresh precipitates and the molecular structure of U bonding were determined to estimate the mobility of U(VI). Analytical and spectroscopic methods such as Extended X-ray Absorption Fine-Structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy at the Fe K-edge and the U LIII-edge, and Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transform Infra- red (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy were employed. The freshly formed precipitate was identified as colloidal two-line ferrihydrite. It removed U(VI) from solution by sorption processes, while surface precipitation or structural incorporation of U was not observed. -
Rate Constants for Reactions Between Iodine- and Chlorine-Containing Species: a Detailed Mechanism of the Chlorine Dioxide/Chlorite-Iodide Reaction†

Soc. 1996, 118, 3708-3719 Rate Constants for Reactions between Iodine- and Chlorine-Containing Species: A Detailed Mechanism of the Chlorine Dioxide/Chlorite-Iodide Reaction† Istva´n Lengyel,‡ Jing Li, Kenneth Kustin,* and Irving R. Epstein Contribution from the Department of Chemistry and Center for Complex Systems, Brandeis UniVersity, Waltham, Massachusetts 02254-9110 ReceiVed NoVember 27, 1995X Abstract: The chlorite-iodide reaction is unusual because it is substrate-inhibited and autocatalytic. Because - analytically pure ClO2 ion is not easily prepared, it was generated in situ from the rapid reaction between ClO2 and I-. The resulting overall reaction is multiphasic, consisting of four separable parts. Sequentially, beginning with mixing, these parts are the (a) chlorine dioxide-iodide, (b) chlorine(III)-iodide, (c) chlorine(III)-iodine, and (d) hypoiodous and iodous acid disproportionation reactions. The overall reaction has been studied experimentally and by computer simulation by breaking it down into a set of kinetically active subsystems and three rapidly established - equilibria: protonations of chlorite and HOI and formation of I3 . The subsystems whose kinetics and stoichiometries were experimentally measured, remeasured, or which were previously experimentally measured include oxidation of - iodine(-1,0,+1,+3) by chlorine(0,+1,+3), oxidation of I by HIO2, and disproportionation of HOI and HIO2. The final mechanism and rate constants of the overall reaction and of its subsystems were determined by sensitivity analysis and parameter fitting of differential equation systems. Rate constants determined for simpler reactions were fixed in the more complex systems. A 13-step model with the three above-mentioned rapid equilibria fits the - -3 - -3 - - overall reaction and all of its subsystems over the range [I ]0 < 10 M, [ClO2 ]0 < 10 M, [I ]0/[ClO2 ]0 ) 3-5, pH ) 1-3.5, and 25 °C. -
